2. What are the benefits of sand blasting?
Sand blasting is an effective method for removing tough coatings and preparing surfaces for painting or refinishing. It can be used on a variety of materials, including metal, wood, concrete, and masonry. Sand blasting can also be used to create a smooth finish or texture on surfaces.
3. What types of materials can be sand blasted?
Sand blasting is suitable for a wide range of materials, including steel, cast iron, aluminum, brick, and stone. It is commonly used in industries such as automotive, construction, manufacturing, and restoration.
